He is outside, all right. He should have dropped out months ago, saved his donors’ money for a PAC, and worked on rehabilitating himself.
Perry has the answer to the eventual Obama excuse of inheriting Bush's economy and his plea for "more time" to right the ship.
Perry will simply say that he also inherited Bush's economy and used sound economic practices like teaming up with Texas's part time congress to cut spending and stabilize the tax and regulatory policies. The results between Obama's results and Perry's are completely opposite with Perry's policies creating jobs and a 1.6 billion dollar surplus by the time our part time congress reconvenes for the next budget.
Obama has no answer for that and neither do any other of the candidates running.
